In recent weeks, a flurry of excitement has spread across the internet following claims of an upcoming 2024 remake of the cult classic film Labyrinth, with cast Tom Hiddleston as Jareth, the Goblin King, and Hailee Steinfeld as Sarah.
The rumors, which have been widely shared on social media, even suggest that the film will feature an all-new soundtrack by Jonathan Davis, the lead singer of the band Korn, with a release date set for November 2024. However, these claims have been confirmed to be entirely false.
Despite the buzz, there has been no official announcement from any major studio or credible entertainment news outlet regarding a Labyrinth remake.
Tom Hiddleston, who is well-known for his roles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has not been attached to any such project. Similarly, Hailee Steinfeld has not been reported to take on the role of Sarah.
Additionally, the involvement of Jonathan Davis, known for his work in the nu-metal band Korn, in creating a new soundtrack for the film, is also unsubstantiated.
There has been no mention of this project in any interviews or official statements from Davis or his representatives.
